    So would a “Sour” fall under the tart category? Or is that just a grouping of multiple types that bars use

    The English Bitter is my favorite style of beer. It’s a shame you cant get much of it across the pond in America. Since it’s traditionally served on Cask, its less common in America. The beers on cask in America seem to be mostly fruity or lactose IPA’s. Timothy Taylor’s Landlord might be one of the best English Bitters!

  24. yungjoemighty

    American lagers suck so bad and all self respecting Europeans agree

    Doppelbock (or rather – Koźlak Dubeltowy) has to be my favourite. I love the darker tone of it, without going too deep in chocolate and coffee flavours. I guess it goes in line with my love for strong tea and a strong hatred of coffee.

  26. Eric Neirynck

    August 19, 2020 at 1:27 am

    I agree about the brown ales. Super underrated, wish they were more common.

    Did he just say lobster and mussels? Anyone try this? I’m just curious and want to learn more about it lol

      August 19, 2020 at 4:59 am

      One of my local breweries did use oysters in a gose beer… It was way too salty for my taste though. I’m sure it would be much better in a porter / stout described in the video.

  31. Minnow

    Light Lager isn’t beer, it’s carbonated urine.

  32. CurryKingWurst

    He didn’t even mention the Reinheitsgebot…

  33. Gina Hou

    This video is wonderful – I’ve wanted to learn the different tastes of beer and this video (an hour long!) is really helpful

    Now that’s a certification I would look forward to.
    Let me grab a beer and see this guy tell me that I am drinking HorsePiss

    American bias much?

  36. Projectile Live

    which are sweeter but not too sweet and rich in flavor but not bitter or less bitter?

    • MightyBone

      August 19, 2020 at 4:26 pm

      Check out a Belgian Tripel for something that most people not looking for too sweet or too bitter go for. Also Saison/Farmhouse ales are often flowery but if they are standard they are very drinkable but not sweet and if they don’t say hopped anywhere on the container are also not bitter at all. Brown ales might also be what you’re looking for. I find them plain, but they are easy drinking, slightly malty but not sweet or bitter beers. Some of them are sweetened slightly though which may be what you’re looking for.

    Listening to an American talking about beer , is like listening to a German talking about hamburgers…….OH WAIT….!

    The fact that this is an hour-long vid about BEER… 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

  40. Amon San

    August 19, 2020 at 12:49 pm

    for those who want to pronounce “Urquell” correctly: it’s something along the lines of “oor-kwell” (the ‘oo’ pronounced as in the noun ‘moor’)

    • Titamiva

      August 21, 2020 at 12:19 am

      I was hoping or someone to correct him on this.

    Thank you for saying rye isn’t spicy! As a homebrewer, it’s one of my biggest pet peeves.

  45. iammaxhailme

    August 19, 2020 at 6:26 pm

    who else is tired of bitter hoppy IPAs and want to drink a dark stout in a wood paneled bar with a bunch of silent depressed alcoholics like our forefathers did

  46. iammaxhailme

    August 19, 2020 at 7:00 pm

    But here’s a question: Is beer soup?

  47. Lil bit

  48. Jacques Chazelle

    I used to like all sorts of beer types, but then I got into IPA. Its both delicious and seems to ruin your love/palette for other beers. Portland, Oregon is like Mecca for us IPA lovers.

  50. David Tunnicliffe

    August 20, 2020 at 1:44 am

    Excellent presentation except for the ‘I’m too dumb to watch anything without crap and irrelevant music’ soundtrack.

  51. Cheeky Saver

    August 20, 2020 at 3:07 am

    I heard wheat wine… and instantly started looking up recipes. I do 2.5G batches and like to take my time. THAT will be fantastic for spring… I am a newb and really know nothing… but I learn more about beer everyday. It is a fun ride. (One beer makes me wobbly… I have never drank much… like 2 to 6 drinks a year. I am learning so much! IPA’s and dark ales are high on my list of things I enjoy.) I want to brew and try all the things now. 😀

    This is going to be my new answer when people say “I don’t like any beer” *shows an hour-long video of every beer type.

  59. Jonathan H

    August 20, 2020 at 6:07 pm

    Really informative video, but the choppiness of the editing gave me a headache. Constantly chopping between very short unnecessary clips really detracts. I’d rather it was more of him talking

  60. K_A

    August 20, 2020 at 7:46 pm

    Over an hour of beers and no mention of sours?

    • Jasper Pollet

      August 21, 2020 at 10:19 am

      Did you miss the Gose, Lambic, Geueze and fruit beer parts?

  61. Martin Růžička

    August 20, 2020 at 8:58 pm

    I was worried he would not mention Pilsner.

    • Austin Schwartz

      August 21, 2020 at 4:19 am

      The Umlaut never ceases to baffle North Americans!

    Totally thought you said “smelly As” when you said “sommeliers”

  65. Joachim Koka

    this guy has a killer bar too

  66. fungifago

    August 21, 2020 at 4:54 am

    Don’t need timestamps, already watched it twice haha. My favorite styles are the BOCK family and btw, shouldn’t waizenbock and waizendoppelbock deserve a mention?

  67. ThaPABproductions

    So much effort in the imagery but yet not one solid image of a New England ipa wtf

    You’ll make a lot of casual beer drinking Belgians happy by mentioning Duvel and the Trappist beers… but the real Belgian crown beers are indeed the Lambics and derivatives. They are so underrated in our own country, it’s unbelievable.

  71. Dan Phillips

    August 21, 2020 at 12:53 pm

    I don’t know about the guy presenting, but I’m exhausted after listening to all that. Interesting, but very information dense.

  72. Michiel Buyens

    Creek xD It is written as “Kriek”, meaning cherry 😀

    For someone with a short span of attention, I am surprised I watched the whole thing . I am even more surprised to realize I’ve tried so many of these styles and variations.
